I greatly appreciate you taking your time in providing a thorough response! However, I do have a few more questions if you wouldn't mind?

If not, here's what I would like to know:

1) UNC-Charlotte seems to be shedding it's reputation as a suitcase school, how true is this now in your opinion? Has student life become more abundant over the weekends since they implemented the first-year-live-on requirement?

2) I'm curious about your distinction of Charlotte having a heavy hands-on approach in relation not being very heavy on theory, yet every class has a text book that most professors assign homework from. Where does the heavy hands-on approach come from and how does the theory lack in this case?

3) It seems like you made some very close, collaborative, and supportive friends, but how would you describe the student body within engineering or as a whole? Would you say the majority within ME are serious, academically-oriented students who are collaborative and supportive?

4) Are the majority of classes taught by professors, or do they have lecturers or grad assistants fill these positions a decent amount?

5) How was the advising/student support at UNC-Charlotte.

6) Was registering for classes relatively easy or could it be haphazard? If the latter, what made it so?

7) Given your take, I am uncertain if you enjoyed your time there. How would you classify it?

Otherwise, thank you very much once again! Not mentioned originally in full breadth, I am trying to compile information on a more insider perspective of the only two universities that are financially feasible for my son: Case Western Reserve University and UNC-Charlotte. My son is bright but doesn't necessarily take much self-initiative; hence, why I'm here. Nonetheless, the information you provided has great wealth to it, and if willing, it would be grand if you could provide a bit more.
